 | For context, I work for a small landscaping company. I had sprayed non-selective herbicide on some weeds growing in sidewalk cracks and along bed edges. Only one customer complained but the owner of the company went around to all of our properties and found about 5 spots total out of over 60 properties. He asked me to fix the situation by going around to till up the spots and put some sod down, which I replied yes absolutely, I take pride in my work as well as personal accountability for my mistakes. After the job was completed I had 3 pieces left over which I took to his house, filled out our time sheet, and after he received it I get a text stating "are you expecting me to pay you for your mistakes?". He's refusing to pay me for over 4 hours of labor (I get paid hourly, not salary). Isn't this illegal? It just isnt sitting right with me. I've known this man for 15 years and worked here for 2 years. I'm seriously considering turning in my keys and company credit cards. I always go above and beyond what is expected, even getting praise for my work but now this? This seems like a severe power trip and manipulation. submitted by /u/aspec84 to r/mildlyinfuriating [link] [comments] |
